Turks and Caicos Islands: 5 Day Forecast

Ahoy from Mudjin Harbour on Middle Caicos, Boaby Rock Point on Grand Turk, and Grace Bay on Providenciales. Today at Mudjin Harbour the sun rises at 6:29 AM and sets at 7:13 PM, with the moon 85% lit. With very little cloud around tonight, stargazing could be fine, and low in the western sky after sunset ye may spot bright Venus before it slips below the horizon.

Sunday brings fine boating weather across the islands, matey. Morning starts warm near 83 to 84 F with humidity in the upper 70s, and with the humidity it will feel like 88 to 93. Winds stay easterly around 13 to 16 MPH, with waves mostly 3 feet, though Boaby Rock Point runs a touch choppier early near 4 feet. Skies stay mostly sunny with low cloud cover, and any rain is just passing light sunshowers that likely will not amount to much. Through midday and afternoon, Mudjin turns the hottest at 85 to 86 F and feels like 95 to 98, while Grace Bay stays steadier near 83 to 84 and Boaby Rock Point near 82 to 84. Around dinner time, all three spots stay warm with light cloud, east winds near 12 to 14 MPH, and waves 2 to 3 feet at Grace Bay and 3 feet elsewhere, making outdoor dining and beach time look pleasant. The standout difference today is Boaby Rock Point, where early winds run a bit stronger and waves a foot higher than the Caicos spots.

Monday stays favorable too, though cloud cover builds more through the morning before clearing later. Daybreak starts near 83 to 84 F at all three locations with humidity near 79 to 80%, and with the humidity it will feel like 92 to 94. East winds hold around 13 to 16 MPH with 3 foot seas. Mudjin and Grace Bay turn cloudiest late morning into midday, even reaching mostly cloudy skies for a spell, but rain stays light and spotty. By afternoon, Mudjin heats up the most at 86 to 87 F and feels like 98 to 101, while Grace Bay and Boaby Rock Point hover closer to 84 F and feel like the mid 90s. Toward dinner time, skies clear back out, rain fades away, and boating conditions remain good with easterly winds around 13 to 16 MPH and 3 foot waves. The main difference Monday is again Mudjin Harbour, which runs noticeably hotter than Grace Bay and Grand Turk through the afternoon.
